Abstract
This
paper
presents
a
new
and
integrated
decision
making
approach
for
firms
to
utilize
when
facing
a
complex
sustainability
issue
using
palm
oil
as
a
case
study.
The
approach,
Sustainability
Decision
Making
Protocol,
includes
five
steps:
mind
mapping,
stakeholder
analysis,
tradeoffs
analysis,
systems
dynamics
and
analyses
with
decision
trees.
The
steps
are
not
implemented
in
a
linear
way,
but
as
an
iterative
process.
Outcomes
from
the
different
steps
can
be
used
help
improve
the
implementation
of
others.
Using
the
tools
in
this
way
also
provides
an
opportunity
for
greater
collaboration
and
communication
among
stakeholders.
A
decision
is
not
developed
for
a
specific
client,
as
there
are
a
multitude
of
variables
that
are
unique
to
each
company.
Rather,
this
paper
provides
background
and
a
protocol
that
can
be
used
to
inform
sustainability
strategy
development
around
this
agricultural
commodity.
